JRN 02362Sports Journalism II

Catalog

Students will build on sports writing skills learned in Sports Journalism I. Students will work in teams to form sports staffs that will produce sports sections on a biweekly basis. These sections will include game stories, features and columns, as well as "surprise" stories. The sports staffs will compete with each other to produce the most compelling, timely, informative, opinionated and entertaining sections. Each student will spend time in a different role - beat writer, feature writer, columnist, general-assignment writer, and assigning editor.
